/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The crash of A-320 liner of Armavia Armenian
Company was a result of a criminal scuffle aboard, former pilot of
Armenian Airlines having 42 years of experience Vladimir Poghosyan
told journalists in Yerevan Thursday. In his words, before the flight
a criminal scuffle of two groupings took place, however they were
allowed aboard. Thus, the scuffle continued in the plane. He remarked,
"calls from 4 Russian citizens indicated there was firing aboard."
The Armenian pilot believes that according to the scheme of approach
landing, the crew had to make a decision on landing at the altitude
of 600 meters, however, "as the weather did not meet the required
minimum of the airport, no crew had the right to land." "Thus, I
cannot understand, why the crew decided to land in Sochi," Poghosyan
said. In his opinion, investigation by an independent Armenian
commission is necessary, as official investigation is not over yet,
reports Novosti-Armenia.
According to the preliminary conclusion of the International Aviation
Commission, inappropriate actions of the liner's captain resulted
in A-320 crash. No failure of engines or systems was registered,
the plane responded to the robot pilot and crew actions, the level
of fuel was enough for completing the flight successfully.
A-320 liner of Armavia company crashed over the Black Sea on the night
of May 3 during approach landing in Sochi airport. All 105 passengers
and 8 crewmembers aboard died.
